Smaller images/screenshots get enlarged and blurry on the forum

Images that are added to forum posts will be reduced in size if they are large so they fit the forum board.

The result is that some perfectly sharp screenshots of e.g. Picard end up blurry on the forum.

Wouldn’t it be better to only reduce image sizes but never increase them?

edit:
Please ignore, incorrect assumption.
Small images are not increased in size.

There seems to be an increased interest and activity in possible further improvements on the matter. I am getting more and more confident that using Picard for retrieving genres and relying on the results is a good and promising option and worth investing more time and effort in. So, I have created…

Those blurred images were decreased in size, not increased.
Sorry, my mistake.

Yeah, and thanks for replying/challenging me.
I now learned that if you appreciate pixel-perfect, it’s best to keep images under 690 px wide.
